ANOTHER SEIZURE.
HALIFAX, n. s., Aug. S.-Consider9ble
excitement prevail4d here on Saturday
over the latest seizure at Souris, which is
now reported to be not Only for Cff5rsa
against the custom laws, but also for VIC.
lation OF the treaty of 1878. 1t was Ct
such consequence as to require the inn
mediate presence OF Consult General Phe-
Ian. Great interest is also attached to
the conference which took ace that day
between the Minister OF Fisheries,
Rear Admiral Luce, Consul General Phel.
an and Captain Scott. The conference
oG urred on beard the United States flag
ship Richmond, and lasted over Gu hour.
1t is understood the CirCums tauCes CON

IN Canadian waters were discussed. The
statement Of the question was by Admiral
Luce and Captain SaCtt replied thereto.
Other matters were freely and frankly
discussed intOrms!ly regarding the Glou-
Ster schooner Arg0naut and the French,
the minister of fisheries declared il 10 he
tie intention OF the Canadian authorities
20 capture those vessels wherever they
could fad them either inside the
Canadian limits or on the high secs out
side the territorial waters OF the United
States He argued thatthe vessels, upon
the admission Of their crews, had clearly
been guilty of viOlating the treaty, and
therefore were hable for forfeiture, and q
forfeited vessel could be taken anywhere
outside the territorial waters Of another
power. Both Admiral Luce and Consul
General Plelar strongly dlsseuted from
this view, and emphsticsIIy expressed
their opinion that the United States
would never permit those vessels TO be
taken outside the territCris
waters Of Canada. Regarding the
supply of the nec9- saries q
life to American vessels coming in from
the banks destitute, the minister eX
planned that when no vessel would bt

his intention to elbow American vessel;
to tish until al their provisions were eX
hausted and then p!ay upon the Canadian

of the Souris seizure, but II the mel

CARE OF PASTURES,
A Successful Way Of Preventing this Un-
even Growth OF Grass.

A Successful Way Of Preventing this I'M
even Growth OF Grass.
When pastures are not graZed very
clos ely, and q liberal and luNuriant
growth of grass is permitted, it often
happens that masses and patches of
the era SIS will run up to seed. and be-
come too dry and hard for the animals
TO touch it. When this occurs. the
pasture is diminished in value, and
does not afford so much feed as when
the whole is uniform mass of succu,-
lent heritage. Thrifty farmers prevent
this uneven appearance by passing a
reaping machine over the field with the
knives set about ten inches high,
cutting off the heads of such grass AS
may have begun to form seeds. laying
open the green heritage below, and
giving the whole field an even and
handsome appearance. The defect in
this treatment is not doing the work
soon enough, the grass below having
become too ripe. and some exhaustion
having already occurred in the forma-
ton of the seed heads. The work
should therefore be performed before
the heads have fairly made their APP
pearance. preserving the green and
fresh mass over the whole field.
Another and an important advan-
tage attends this treatment in new
pastures. Annual weeds often accom-
pany the growth Of the young grass,
and disiigure the fields. Cutting these
CT with the reaper at the proper time
will prevent the ripening or forming
of the seeds. and assist in eradicating
them and in forming perfect pasture.
During unusually moist summers. the
growth of grass in pastures will some
times be much heavier than is required
to supply the demands of the grazing
herd. In this case, the field may be
made to serve the purpose of both
meadow and pasture, by cutting the
grass eight or nine inches high just
before the forming of the seed, raking
this early cut OF grass for hay, and
leaving handsome pasture. The
many acres which reaper will 60
over in day, will repay several times
over. in their improved condition all
the labor rcquired.-Counsry Gentle

and at the door stood the faithful
horse, which. having tried to save his
master, was patiently waiting for some
sign that he get lived. The sad sight
was so touching as to force tears to
the eyes of the men who had been
guided by the noble brute to the
rescue.
A hasty examination disclosed the
fact that life was not extinct, aud while
one of the men set about preparations
for the relief of the sick man, the other
remounted his horse and galloped away
for physician, the nearest of whom
lived some twenty miles away.
Before shutdown of that day. the doc
tor reached the miners cabin, and
found the sick man conscious, through
the skillful illustrations of his kind
ncighbOr. Within fortnight he was
able to walk about. When told of the
remarkable conduct of his horse, the
man wept like child. He said he had
always known that his horse was I'M
usually intelligent and affectionate.
but he could scarcely believe the story
of his wonderful sagacity.
George is in good health again, and
the care and attention which he be-
slows upon his horse are like the care
of a devoted mother for a favored son.
Not long since, gentleman. having
learned of the incident related above,
eSprpSSe1 a desire tn OurchaSe the
horse. but George informed him that
no amount of money could tempt him
to part with the animal; that it WIS
his intention to keep him as long ashe
lived, upon the very best that the land
could produce. and when he died to
bury him decently, and erect over his
grave monument with the inscription:
ITO my best friend. '-YoutA's Com

Many passionate child rules the
household. The little baby on his
| mothers knee goes into a passion be-
cause his dinner is withheld from him. or
some toy denied him. He shrieks. and
strikes his mother. and the mother
says: "Poor little boy. he has such :.
passionate nature; he can't be crossed"
and yields to him. She ought to spank
hm-spank him hard-for being in Il
passion. and give him nothing till his
passion had cooled. The child. though
he be so young that he can not speak.
if he is old enough to lift his fist and
strike blow, deserves punishment,
needs to have lesson of repression
taught him. The mother who regIects
this increases the chances of her sons
going to the gallows. When tie child
is older. there are better disciplinary
punishments than spanking; but when
the child reaches such an age that they
are useful. it may be too late, his tenn
per may have grown into dominate
ing force in his character that can not
be eradicated. Mothers sometimes saw
when child shows a vile temper and
shrieks u good deal. that it would en-
danger his life to punish him; perhaps
so, but you still more endanger his fut-
